Inspired by the graceful shape of lotus petals, the LOTUS Quilt Pattern by Zen Chic brings together curved seams, layered construction, and a refined palette for a striking modern quilt. This design combines bluish prints and low-volume fabrics to create a calm, architectural aesthetic. The interplay of curved piecing, appliqué elements, and foundation paper piecing adds depth and visual movement while maintaining a clean, contemporary finish. At 85in x 65in, LOTUS creates a generous quilt that works beautifully as a statement throw or modern bed quilt.
